MERCY'S POWER: INSPIRATION TO SERVE THE GOSPEL OF LIFE

This is a critical time in the history of our world and of our faith — a time when advocates for life must be more persuasive and courageous than ever before. As a result, we need a spiritual guidebook, one that can provide solace and support during these turbulent times. We require a handbook for how best to renew the culture of life in an environment that can be quite hostile to our message. While Roe v. Wade is now history, a range of threats to innocent human life — from the moment of conception to the twilight of life — persist. Indeed, in some instances, the voices raised against protection of life have grown louder and have been accompanied by violent attacks against churches, pregnancy resource centers, and various faith-based institutions. In the face of such virulent opposition, the need for a manual for spiritual guidance is more necessary than ever.

This is what Mercy's Power is designed to be — a trusty companion for our journey. For those who seek to transform the culture, the journey represents both a spiritual climb and a sojourn paved with acts of mercy. Think of it as combining the best of the biblical sisters Mary and Martha — we must be attentive to the Lord, while also extending hospitality to our fellow men and women.
